Blue Monkey Plumbing
Running toilets, weak flushing, leaks, rocking fixtures, slow refilling and recurring clogs can all look like simple toilet problems, but they do not always have the same cause.
Blue Monkey Plumbing provides residential toilet repair across West Vancouver, including Ambleside, Dundarave, Caulfeild, Horseshoe Bay, Eagle Harbour, Westmount, the British Properties and surrounding neighbourhoods.
A business-hours visit starts with our $99 call-out and a visual, non-invasive first check. If the repair is clear, we give you the repair price. If more investigation is needed first, we explain what is required and price that step before proceeding.
This page covers general toilet repair in West Vancouver. For the wider North Shore service overview, see our toilet repair services .
The symptom usually gives the first clue. The important part is not assuming the first visible symptom automatically tells us which component has failed.
Continuous water entering the bowl can involve the flapper, flush valve, fill valve, tank water level, or another internal component.
A toilet that periodically refills when nobody has used it often has water slowly escaping from the tank.
Poor flushing can involve the tank setup, bowl performance, water level, or a partial restriction in the toilet or drainage.
The source may be the tank, supply connector, shut-off valve, toilet base, or a concealed connection underneath.
Movement can disturb the seal underneath and may point to a mounting, flange, or floor condition that needs attention.
Stop flushing. A blockage in the toilet or drainage can cause water to rise quickly and spill onto the bathroom floor.
The tank contains several moving and sealing components that have to work together every time the toilet flushes and refills.
Depending on the fixture, repair may involve the fill valve, flapper, flush valve, trip lever, chain, tank hardware, seals or water-level adjustment.
If several components are worn at the same time, we may discuss whether replacing individual parts, rebuilding the tank, or replacing the toilet makes more practical sense.
Water on the floor does not always mean the seal underneath has failed. Water can travel before it becomes visible.
Tank bolts, seals, or a damaged tank can allow water to run down the outside of the toilet.
The shut-off valve, supply connector, or connection to the toilet can leak and wet the floor beside the fixture.
A failed seal, loose toilet, damaged flange, or concealed mounting problem can cause leakage at the floor connection.
If the water is specifically appearing around the floor connection, see our toilet leak at base repair in West Vancouver .
A toilet that drains slowly, rises high in the bowl, or repeatedly clogs may have a fixture problem, but it may also be reacting to a restriction in the drainage.
If other fixtures are also draining poorly or backing up, the problem may extend beyond the toilet itself. That changes the next step completely.
We work in everything from older character homes and long-renovated bathrooms to newer construction and larger custom homes across West Vancouver.
That can mean older toilet flanges, previous plumbing alterations, unusual fixture models, renovated floors, aging shut-off valves, or replacement parts that are no longer straightforward to identify. We deal with what is actually installed rather than assuming every toilet setup is standard.
Often, yes. Many running, filling and leaking problems can be repaired without replacing the toilet.
Replacement may make more sense when the porcelain is damaged, several components are deteriorated, compatible parts are difficult to source, flushing performance remains poor, or the fixture is already due for an upgrade. We explain the options before you decide.
The $99 business-hours call-out covers scheduling, travel, arrival and the initial visual, non-invasive check.
If we know enough to define the repair, we give you the repair price. If Further Investigation is needed first, we explain what that involves and give you the price for that step before proceeding.

Water may be escaping from the tank or the fill mechanism may not be shutting off correctly. Common possibilities include the flapper, flush valve, fill valve, water level, or related tank components.
Intermittent refilling often means water is slowly escaping from the tank and the fill valve is periodically replacing it.
Sometimes. Weak flushing can involve tank setup, water level, bowl performance, or a partial restriction. The cause needs to be checked before deciding whether parts, drain work, or replacement makes sense.
If using or flushing the toilet causes water to appear on the floor, it is sensible to stop using it until the leak source can be checked.
Not automatically. The decision depends on the condition of the fixture, availability of compatible parts, repair cost, and overall performance.
